What’s the best way to hook up and xbox 360 and ps3 using ethernet cables?

I have 1 ethernet wire running from my router to my xbox 360 which is about 30ft away. (I know the ps3 has wireless but it’s rather slow.) So i’m wondering how to hook up both without running another 30ft ethernet cable.
Would a ethernet splitter or switch work?

if you have two ethernet ports on your router you could just buy another cable and connect it up otherwise you are going to have to buy an extension one what will plug in and give you two ethernet ports
You could move your modem to your room with your xbox and connect the ethernet directly.
You could use a splitter off the 30ft cable

you will need 2 short ethernet cables,a female-female run through
,and a Male to 2 female splitter,i could not find a female to 2 female splitter online so i assume you wont be able to either,or that they dont make them.Look at them and hopefully you will understand

FEMALE TO FEMALE PASS THROUGH

this way is cheap and easy( like 5 bucks)
but if you are going to use the connections at the same time you will need a HUB but i dont think you will have both of them on at the same time!!!!!!!!!
